Chapter 973 Liu Bei Seeks the Way

Hearing these words, Yuan Tan was really attractive, especially to his descendants.

However, he has said so many teachings back and forth, is there really only rote memorization? No, he has more or less attained the Tao.

So, he shook his head firmly.

When Zhang Lu was disappointed, he heard Yuan Tan say: "You Taoist priest came down the mountain not for me, Yuan Tan, or my descendants, but for the peace and happiness of the people in the world. As a contemporary celestial master, you should understand this. I will help you if you want.”

Zhang Lu was shocked, and immediately saluted, saying: "How can you not understand Wuyan?"

Yan Pu and the others were also quite surprised.

What is a righteous person.

What is a man of virtue.

That's it.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong also felt that it was the right choice to resolutely vote for Yuan Tan back then.

Yuan Tan then said, "What's your problem?"

Zhang Lu got serious, stroked his beard, and said: "I heard from foreigners who came from the Western Regions that there is such a thing as Romanism and Greekism, which are very prosperous. There is also Buddhism in China, since the second Eastern Han Dynasty After being greeted by Liu Zhuang, the first emperor of the Han and Ming Dynasties, it was also prosperous. Eldest son, you are the world's supreme, you understand."

Yuan Tan nodded and said, "Of course I understand what you said."

"However, the success of Taoism depends on itself, not on me."

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong's eyes widened.

Zhang Lu flicked his whisk, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I would like to hear more about it."

Yuan Tan solemnly said: "Taoists in troubled times go down to save the world, and Taoists in prosperous times return to the mountains... patriotism, protection of the people, respect for the ancestors, and respect for the gods. Tell me, how can a Taoist practice like this not be admired by all generations? I'm afraid you won't be able to complete it." Do you wish?"

Zhang Lu felt chills all over his body, he was excited, and found that what he couldn't figure out before was now clear. In the past, he was too obsessed with appearances and failed to see through the truth hidden behind it. It was the eldest son who saw it clearly and had a deeper understanding of Tao.

But Yuan Tan had something to think about. In order to subdue this Heavenly Master Zhang, he went to the department store to read books about "Taoist".

Only then did I realize that the greatness of the Taoist is far beyond my imagination.

So I started to gain the Tao gradually.

In this era when Taoism has not really developed,

Taoists began to put forward the idea of ​​"helping the country" and "protecting the country".

In the "Taiping Jing", it is said that a cultivator should "help the country to gain the heart of heaven".

Also: Tiannai is unique to Dejun, so if it is made for it, it can protect itself and protect the country. It is clearly stated that helping the country and protecting the country.

Sakoku Fuming

Since Zhang Daoling Tianshi at the end of Han Dynasty, he is also the grandfather of Zhang Lu.

Similar to Taoists, there are many words to help the country, protect the country, and assist the country.

"Dongxuan Lingbao Twenty-Four Lives Picture Sutra" mentions: Anguoyumin.

"Taishangdongxuanlingbao Zhenwen Yaojieshangjing" records: rejuvenate the country and love the people, and benefit all living beings.

It is said in the "Lingbao Wuquanmen Top Grade Wonderful Sutra": Equal love and kindness, marriage of different bones, national security and prosperity, happiness and peace.

"Taishang Wuji Zongzhen Wenchang Dadong Xianjing" records: Zuo Tian Xinghua, helping the country and saving the people.

"The Essence of the Jade Emperor's Prayer": Elaborate and respectful, the home and country are peaceful.

These are all expressions of Taoist love for the people and China.

"Sutra of Protecting the Country by Praying for Rain and Eliminating Disasters", "Jun Bixia Yuanjun Protecting the Country and Sheltering the People, Pursuing Economics and Protecting Lives and Living", "Sutra of Protecting the Country by General Lang Ling", "Zhengyi French Sutra of Protecting the Country" "Jiangdong King's Spirit Sign to Protect the Country Jiaji"

These classics are directly written in the title of the book as protecting the country, defending national security with practical actions.

Helping the country, protecting the country, assisting the country, and protecting the country, these classics were produced in different historical periods, from the Han and Wei Dynasties to the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, which shows that Taoist patriotism is endless.

Then, in the vast history of mankind, are there any practitioners who emphasize patriotism so much?

When the dynasty is decaying and declining, the society is in turmoil and chaos, and the people are miserable.

Who is it that comes forward? Go down the mountain to save the world, strategize, and assist the Ming Lord to pacify the world and establish a new dynasty.

It made the world stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and made an indelible and outstanding contribution to the progress and development of history.

The historical meritorious service shines through the ages, and its glorious deeds are well-known and recited through the ages.

Whenever the world needs to set things right, Taoism always comes forward!

The Chinese culture must never be without the pearl of Taoism.

Yuan Tan is now in front of the time travel, of course he has to do his part.

"As for Zhang Lu, as the celestial master of this generation, you have a heavy burden that cannot be shirked. If you lose once, you will go back to the mountain? Let alone all the people in the world, the hundreds of thousands of Daoist people in Hanzhong City, these seeds are allowed to be destroyed ?”

"This..." Zhang Lu was extremely shocked. And his disciple Yan Pu and others had already prostrated themselves on the ground, shedding hot tears.

Originally, heroes in the world said they were like yellow scarves, but now, they have finally found the right direction. This is the path that should be cultivated, the correct path.

Zhang Lu, the contemporary celestial master, finally accepted his head and bowed, crying: "My lord, your words are like enlightenment, people of my way, I would like to follow you, go down the mountain to save the people in troubled times, and write a new chapter for writers. In the prosperous age, we will retreat to the deep mountains, practice our own body, and wait for the mission of the next reincarnation."

Zhang Lu felt that his cultivation realm had been greatly improved in this short period of time. Benevolence, wisdom, etiquette, faith, patriotism, protecting the people, respecting the ancestors, respecting the gods, these powers bless him.

Yuan Tan was also very excited. He didn't know whether it was the Tao of later generations that influenced him, or the current him influenced the Tao. He didn't think much about the paradox. As long as everything is good, for China, for the people, that's fine.

"Eldest son..." Suddenly Zhang Lu rubbed his hands, with a vulgar expression, there was a little elegance there.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Tan was puzzled.

Zhang Lu said awkwardly: "After listening to so many Taoist classics, can you pass on a copy to me." After speaking, he bowed solemnly, "We would like to respect the eldest son as our patriarch."

"..." Yuan Tan.

After proving the Taoism of Dongtian, he will be honored as the patriarch by the celestial master.

Feeling really guilty.

...

Three days later.

Hanzhong City.

The whole city is under martial law, and there is a tense atmosphere everywhere.

The street was quiet and empty, except for the recruiting office, which was open. The ground was full of money and food, but the Taoist disciples in Hanzhong City simply turned a blind eye.

But in the Sheriff's Mansion, it was a mess.

It also reflects the impatience of Liu Bei and others at the moment.

Liu Bei couldn't recruit recruits.

You must know that Hanzhong has a population of 300,000. It stands to reason that in an emergency, one hundred and eighty thousand can be recruited.

It can be said that Liu Bei has no way to go, and he must find a new way.

"Why don't we catch the strong men." Zhang Fei said bluntly.

Most of the princes have arrested the strong men, but only a few princes have not.

Liu Bei is also one of them.

Fazheng walked out immediately and said, "No, my lord wants to take over the world, how could he do such a senseless thing?"

If you do this, even if you temporarily resist Yuan Tan, you will lose popular support and lose your future.

At this time, Zhou Cang ran in, "My lord, the secret agent has urgently reported that Zhang Lu has sneaked into the city."

Liu Bei was newly acquired in Hanzhong, and his foundation was unstable. Of course, he arranged a lot of eyeliners.

Did Zhang Lu come to make trouble?

Fazheng's eyes lit up, "Whether he is here to make trouble or not, this is a man who can be used. Zhang Lu is a master of heaven, as long as he raises his arms, the whole people will be soldiers."

Zhang Fei snorted coldly, "How could Zhang Lu help us, huh..." If he realized something, "Military Master, you said just now that you can't do immoral things, and if you use threats and lures, are you acting in a righteous way?"

Zhang Lu would definitely not help Liu Bei, so he could only persecute him.

It was obvious that Zhang Fei was dissatisfied with Fazheng's attack on him just now by saying such a shameless thing.

Fazheng didn't bicker, and I believe Liu Bei can understand the meaning. After all, harming one person is definitely different from harming hundreds of thousands of people. The situation can be completely controlled.
